A little winter treat for everybody: team deathmatch makes a comeback here with specially picked maps to keep everybody sweet. Let's get 8 teams signed up so we can get the ball rolling and finish before end of January.

The tourney is International, so servers in multiple locations around the globe will be used so players can find their best server to play on. If one can't be agreed by both sides, a coinflip will determine which one is to be used.

Rules (Please read them all):

Signing Up:

You MUST have a ZDaemon Forum account or have created one in order to sign up to the tournament.

You must actively seek your opponent to arrange a time to play your match. YOu can do so by posting in the tournament forum thread or by finding your opponent in ZDIRC.

To sign up a team, The full team name must be submitted on the tournament website, and you must post your team roster here in the forums.

Playing:

If you fail to turn up for your game, you will be banned from the current tourney as well as the following one.

You must contact your opponent ASAP after you find out who they are and arrange a time to play. If you miss your match and the other player turns up, the above rule applies. If neither player turns up, the above rule also applies.

The winner of each match must post their scores in the tournament thread, providing a link to a screenshot of the score. If there is no proof and no witnesses to say the game has taken place, and the opponent delcares the score of any game to be incorrect or fabricated up to one week after the tournament has ended, then the match must be replayed.

Be sure to post on the forums at least once every round. If your match doesn't get played for whatever reason, then we have no record to what extent both of you tried to contact each other. The result will be a double DQ.

Rematches are not allowed. If you have a problem during your match, speak to your opponent to arrange another time as soon as the problem becomes apparent.

Tourney admin must be notified before the end of a round if extra time for playing your match is needed; Failure to do so will result in DQ.

It is highly recommended that all players record demos and take screenshots of the game. It will be easier for the Admins to deal with disputes about matches if all the resources are with them.

Server rules:

Try making a friendly, peaceful agreement on the server choice. If both sides are happy, we're happy and everyone's happy. Good job!

If you can't agree on a server, both players should select two from the official DUI New Jersey server.

If you have any disputes, call an admin to make a decision. But don't expect it to be amicable and fair to everyone, as it's probably impossible at this point.

Hi, we lost two clowns that registered and there may be hopes of more sign-ups. I'm off to Berlin tomorrow for a week so I'll put this on hold for now - we'll call it a xmas tourney - I'm fine with it finishing in Jan.
